About this listen

My Point Of View My World, My Point of View What’s Yours? Welcome to My Point of View, the podcast where politics meets real talk—and a little bit of humor keeps it all from driving us crazy. I’ve got opinions (trust me, plenty of them), but more importantly, I want to help you form your own. Too many people let politicians do their thinking for them. They take the headlines at face value, vote against their own best interests, and trust that the government has their back—spoiler alert: it doesn’t always work that way. Here, we break down policies and talk about how they affect your life.Ouida Political Science Politics & Government
